Jul 12, 2014: California Science Olympiad Summer Workshop
We had our second annual Science Olympiad Summer Workshop at Caltech on Saturday, July 12, 2014. This was a smaller,
one day version of the Science Olympiad Summer Institute hosted in Phoenix, Arizona each summer. We had 124 attendees
including 11 presenters. Thank you to everyone who attendeed!

The Science Olympiad tournaments are rigorous academic interscholastic
competitions that consist of a series of individual and team events
which students prepare for during the year. The competitions follow
the format of popular board games, TV shows and athletic games.

These challenging and motivational events are balanced between the
various science disciplines of biology, earth science, chemistry, physics,
computers and technology. They require knowledge of science facts, concepts,
processes, skills and science applications. In addition, during the
day there are open house activities that consist of science and mathematics
demonstrations, activities and career counseling sessions conducted
by professors and scientists at the host institution.
